The only times this makes sense is if you are in a really hot market, especially seasonal ones where you might have 100% occupancy for the summer months or something.

I had a STR in another market get shut down by zoning, so I put construction workers in there on a 30+day stay over the summer and now have a MTR tenant to keep the lights on through May after which I'll sell since I have no guarantee on having another 30+day contract next summer.

If you plan to live there in the winters, you might have a hard time doing long term rental outside of that and finding a new tenant every summer.

The previous owner had it listed with them for weekly summer rentals.

I know the seacoast of NH has been mentioned here but I wanted to point out a few options that could be considered.Hampton, a popular coastal town, has strong demand for multifamily units near the beach and a robust short-term rental market, especially in summer.

I visited detroit this summer and I was surprised on how nice downtown Detroit was.

Cabins do great in the summer time for this area.

The cold air often runs out in the summer and the heat doesn't turn on in the winter.

Seeing the success of others and resenting them rather than celebrating them.
